Within the City of Santa Ana, subdivision regulations and procedures are codified in Chapters 34 and 41 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code (SAMC). Per SAMC Chapter 41, applicants must first submit a Tentative Tract Map for staff review to ensure compliance with applicable standards and regulations. Once staff determines the map meets all requirements, it is presented to the Planning Commission for approval, as vested under SAMC Section 34-127. Following Planning Commission action, staff notifies the City Council of the decision on the next business day. Applicants have ten (10) days to appeal a Planning Commission decision to the City Council. Following Planning Commission approval, and pursuant to SAMC Chapter 34, the applicant must prepare and submit a Final Map for review by the City Engineer. The City Engineer ensures the final map is in substantial conformance with the approved tentative map and that all requirements of the Subdivision Map Act and SAMC have been satisfied. If the map meets all criteria, the City Engineer notifies the City Council that the final map is under review and subject to approval or disapproval, as required by SAMC Section 34-183.
